Packers vs. Lions Odds
Game Preview
The Packers have a slight edge in the standings, yet they can’t afford to lose to the Lions in order to keep the top spot in the NFC North. They are coming off a win against other division rivals, the Vikings, 23-6, flying high on morale.
Green Bay’s defense is elite, and allows only 18.4 points per game. Right now, they are the 4th overall in allowed yards per game with 278.7. Micah Parsons has 10 sacks so far, while Rashan Gary recorded 7.5
The Lions squeezed out a win over the Giants at home, 34-27 OT. This wasn’t Detroit’s win, but the guests’ loss, and to be honest, the Lions fans weren’t thrilled too much after the game.
Jarred Goff leads the second offense in the league with 29.6 points per game. Though we need to say that, as time goes by, we are starting to believe the true leader of this unit is running back Jahmyr Gibbs, who has 951 rushing yards this season and 10 touchdowns. With 219 yards, he was the primary reason why the Lions beat the Giants.
Packers vs. Lions Head to Head
These two franchises met 192 times, and the Packers lead the series, 107-78-7. As stated, they beat the Lions in Week 1, 27-13.
Packers vs. Lions Predictions
The Packers’ defense is accelerating as the season progresses, and we believe they are going to show up here. Meanwhile, the Lions’ offense is statistically 2nd in the NFL, but it’s been quite volatile lately. As is, Jordan Love. That’s why our pick is under 49.5 points.
